Scum To The Very Last One

"Can you tell me more about this city lord of yours?" I asked. I figured I might as well know exactly what this city lord and his guards have been doing.

"Not here. Follow us." The young man said after a moment of hesitation as he waved me over. I nodded and followed them down a side alley to a small run down house. The house was only one room which also had a kitchen and the bathroom (a small pot) in the same place. 

"I am sorry for our home. It is not the best of places to be." The young man said as he quickly cleaned a spot on the floor for me. I smiled and sat down.

"It is a cozy place. I can see that you have spent a good amount of time in setting things up with what little you have." I said with a smile.
